Someone to Mean Something

I'm standing here waiting
for someone to mean something
maybe possibly to believe the words they say
I'm standing here waiting
to be buried alive
I'd move but there are words blocking the way
I watch as this hole is being filled
with the things I never thought I'd see again
this could be the proof that there's no one but me
I watch standing in this hole
looking at the faces I never thought I'd see again
and I'm waiting by the hour for them to speak
but I hear nothing but the air coming from me
I look up at the sky, seeing everything I could ever want
but this ball and chain has me grounded
and it seems I may be shouting out
all my secret insecurities
Breathing in all these new experiences
and Exhaling my fifteen minutes of being the center of attention
I'm up to my neck in the things
I just wanted to see disappear
Within the hour I may be six feet under
Killed by the only thing keeping me alive
I'll be here waiting by the door
all you have to do is knock
I just hope I can hear you screaming
I'll be here waiting by the door
all I have to do is unlock the truth
I just hope after all this waiting
That I can make my way around these words
and maybe fix these broken thoughts and feelings
where all these paragraphs and tears had left off
But for now I'm desperately waiting
on just someone to mean something
to me
